Nunes: No More Talks with DOJ until It Turns Over Documents

House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes said Monday that he will refuse to meet again with the Justice Department until officials release documents he has requested about the Russia investigation.

Nunes subpoenaed the Justice Department and threatened to hold officials in contempt of Congress if they refuse to release files regarding a confidential FBI informant who spoke to Trump campaign associates in 2016 about Russian election meddling. The California Republican said he and his colleague Trey Gowdy (R., S.C.) had a “productive” meeting with DOJ officials a few weeks ago but ignored a Friday invite to meet again when they found out they would not be receiving the documents they wanted.

“We’re not going to go to another meeting where we don’t get documents, and then the meeting leaks out,” Nunes said Sunday on Fox News.

The confidential FBI source was reported last week to be Stefan Halper, 73, a Cambridge professor and veteran of the Nixon, Ford, and Reagan administrations.

What does “contempt of Congress” do?

I think you get a certificate to hang on your wall. I've always wanted one to memorialize my contempt of congresscritters.

It’s possible. For sure they got wind of the set-up & backed out of the meeting. The deep state jumped early & gave the press the story & could not pull it back. Wish I was a fly on the wall today at the WH when Trump called in FBI/DOJ. It’s all mindboggling when you think about this plot!

Rosenstein runs every single decision by Mueller, even non-Russia related strategy.

Sessions is AWOL.

This is per DeSantis and what witnesses have told them. He was in the Radio in DC today.

Rosenstein = saboteur

Is Mueller running the Justice Dept? Sure sounds like it.

Who at DOJ or FBI tried to set up Nunes and Gowdy as leakers?

Contempt of Congress.
Impeachment.

There are acceptable alternatives to your threat to hold your breath, Devon.

Wake up and do your damn job. Stop flappin’ yer gums and get to it.

We are sick of the charades and all the kabuki BS.
